Flash Banner Help (please)

First I am new to Flash and have mostly worked in PS. 
I have created several animated banners in flash.  The file sizes are large.  I am trying to find a what is the best format and settings to use export these for upload into an website affiliate program (CJ). 
I also want to know if I should have taken all of the media from PS and "saved for web" and stripped them down before I imported them to flash.  I was hoping that there was a setting in Flash that would do that but I am not sure if there is one.   The files for web banners are supposed to very small.  I am just trying to understand how I should have created them and also how to publish them.   I converted all of the images symbols thinking that would help. That did not.
Currently if I publish a gif they look horrible.  I know I doing something wrong, but I just direction. They look great in flash but I am stuck.  Any help is greatly appreciated.

I think you can make this very easly. It is not 3D in the true sense of it. First you take some photo of you chose and select and extend some object on it into separate layers. Then you import this PSD file into new flash document (or just simply insert those separate images on stage one by one). Then you make movie clips from it and you can use even skew transform of them in simple motion tween and you are done. You can use 3D tools as well of course. Really simple, i thin
1. Create new scene
2. Create two (or more layers)
3. Insert background image in first layer
4. Insert another images in other layers :-)
5. Make MovieClip from everyone (click object and press F8)
6. Go to background layer and choose background movie clip
8. Then click right button to first keyframe on time line and choose Create motion tween (1st)
9. In tool menu choos 3D rotation tool
10. click on the end of the animation and slightli rotate background image
11. do the same for other layers/objects
you can do reverse animation in order to make it smooth and you are done :-) Hope it help

    - Let the battery fully drain. The charge for an hour and see what happens,  Try resetting too:
    Reset iPod touch:  Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Connct to computer and restore if it shows in iTunes.
    - You can try placing the iPod in recovery mode and then trying to restore. See:
    iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
    - Also see:
    iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
    Frequenly the white scree is due to a hardware problem.

  • Flash drive help PLEASE

    i have a 1gb godisk flash drive and for some reason it has made two disk images. it use to be where one of the images was the actual flash drive memory and the other for some reason was named "no name" and only had the size of 1.4mb. well yesterday the real memory disappeared and the only one that is left is the 1.4mb. if i try to restore it thats all it sees.
    so what do i do. is the flash drive trash now?
    PLEASE HELP.

    Hi Josh
    In Disk Utility select the flash drive and instead of Restore click Erase to reformat the volume. I would suggest MS-DOS if you ever wanted to use it on Windows.
    Hope that helps

  • Flash 8 Help please

    Hellow fellas, I am having solving a flash 8 problem with a
    new website I am making. I have created a small movie that animates
    my logo across the front of a flash header. The movie is complete
    and saved to the computer but when I preview it in my browser it
    continues to loop over and over with no end, and my navigation
    buttons roll as though the mouse is passing over them continually
    as well. This only happens when previewed in my browser and not in
    FLash 8 when I animate it there.
    If any of you have experienced this or have insight please
    post it here. PS this is my first attempt at making a website but
    am learning quickly. So go slow if you dont mind.

    I have checked the movie and I have a layer that has the stop
    action script that was recommended to me with no change. The file
    will run fine when I press play on the player but will loop when I
    use the test movie option. NOW when I use the test movie option its
    window has the option of debugging the movie and here is the
    report, hope this helps;

  • Flash button help PLEASE

    PLEASE HELP ME!!!
    Ok, here is my problem in short. I am fairly competent in
    flash. I am able to export a flash button out in flash 6, but am
    not in flash 8 or 9. The button just turns dead after i upload the
    button into dreamweaver even though its working when i export it
    out in flash.
    I did ALOT of experimenting. The button that was exported out
    in flash 8 or 9 can work with "_blank" but not "_self". I did
    exactly the same thing for flash 6 and it works!!! This is so
    frustrating.
    I was hoping to export it out in flash 8 or 9 because it has
    additional graphics in it.
    Can anyone please tell me what is wrong. THANKS.
    (dead button means when clicked on nothing happens)

    If you want to use Flash for navigation, consider this -
    1. Some people don't have Flash installed - what do they do?
    2. Search engines don't parse Flash links - your site will
    not be spidered
    3. Screen assistive devices don't parse Flash links - what
    will those users
    do?
    4. DW cannot maintain links within a Flash movie, so if you
    move or rename
    a linked file, your navigation will break - what will you do?
    It's usually a very bad idea for these reasons...
    Your link doesn't work.

  • Flash Install Help Please

    I'm having an exceedingly infuriating time trying to install flash on my mac I'm using safari 7.1.....i needed to update my flash player for one of my movie sites so i goto n adobe and I followed the instructions, went through user name and password etc. When the download box appears it flashes retrieving download briefly then just goes blank and does nothing else... I followed every troubleshooting suggestion checked the preferences made sure its allowed etc. Then it suggests a clean install... ok, thats not a bad idea doing that has been a definite help before....... well...... now I have no flash player at all and it still won't complete or start the download, whichever the case may be since i am not entirely sure...... I need some help or any suggestions, it would be greatly appreciated since now I'm quite sol...

    This seems to be a major problem. I've been trying for 8 hours to find a fix to the problem. I'm running windows 7 home, 64 bit, uninstalled any prior versions of flash, and every time i try to get flash, I can get the download, but when I select run, it loses connection. I even did a system restore to see if something that had recently updated was causing the problem.

  • Adobe Flash Player Help Please !!

    Greetings,
                  Here is the story.  I just bought a new iMac running 10.83.  The problem I'm having is that I cannot watch any of the news site videos because they all ask for Adobe Flash Player.  I have downloaded Adobe and am not getting any results.  The video starts to run, but then either stops and/or looses the sound. Examples of sites are loacal news, CNN and Weather Channel.  Nothing seems to work.
    This has become really frustrated.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Just do not understand why I'm not able to get this up and going.
    Thanks,
    Ted

    Two bugs, one affecting Apple's Mac platform and another attacking Microsoft's Windows, exploit certain Flash player vulnerabilities to install malware onto users' systems, reports ArsTechnica. While users of other operating systems like Linux have yet to report attacks, Adobe's advisory notes the exploit affects all platforms.
    Designated as CVE-2013-0634, the first vulnerability targets the Safari and Firefox Web browsers running on OS X, and is also being used as a trojan to deploy Microsoft Word documents containing malware. For Mac users, the flaw affects Adobe Flash Player version 11.5.502.146 or earlier.
    On March 1 Apple again blocked Flash Player for Lion and Mountain Lion:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5660
    The Adobe Flash patch can be found on Adobe’s website, and users can visit this page to check if their software is the most curent version.
    You should uninstall any previous version first, and repair permissions after installing the new version.
    If you still get a ‘plug-ins blocked’ message:

    have read tons of books but am at a complete loss of where to
    start.
    PLEASE! For the love of Crom!!! Could someone please point me
    in the right direction. Is there a site ANYWHERE!!! (or even a

  • Mac/PC Font Issues in Flash -- Need Help Please

    Hi,
    I have an fla file that I need to update but I am having the font issue that occurs between Mac & PCs.
    I need to export a swf file from an fla file I have. If I send someone the fla file and the font file (Futura Book) could you please export it for me? Someone with a PC? My letters keep getting cut off and I've tried to play around with the spacing already.
    Thank you!!!!
    Allie

    I don't know the answer to that one but you can use the Mouse Over and Click method I have described on this page....
    http://www.iwebformusicians.com/Tricks/MouseOver.html
    It works in IE.
    Its just a question of making up two different buttons with text for each link, taking a screenshot and cropping them and adding the JPEGs to your upload folder.
    You can make up the buttons on an iWeb page and then delete them when you have taken the screenshots. I usually do this sort of thing in Keynote so that I can save them in case I need to modify them.

  • Creating a Video Player with Dynamic Draggable Playlist. Is it doable in Flash? Help Please

    Hello Everyone,
    I am scripting a video player and one of its functionalities
    is to be able to have a playlist that can be arranged by the user
    in any order user like. For Example, if there are lets say 5 videos
    within the playlist:
    SONG 1
    SONG 2
    SONG 3
    SONG 4
    SONG 5
    User can then change the order of the videos by clicking on
    any video and dragging it up or down just like windows mediaplayer
    and the player should play the videos in such order.
    So far, I have been able to use the list component but am not
    sure if it will allow the dragging.
    I would highly appreciate it if you guys can suggest what
    should I do to handle this functionality.
    Thanks.

    Hm, you could define ‘slots’ with rectangles and
    each slot would map to a specific slot in some
    ‘playlist’. Then create your own ‘list
    renderer’ that attaches draggable clips based on the playlist
    array. During drag and drop, you’d detect which
    ‘slot’ the movieclip was dropped into, which would
    define where in the playlist array it should be inserted.
    Then shift the elements around, insert the item in the array,
    and rerender the list.
    (I’m sure there are probably better/neater ways to do
    this as well, this is just quickly off the top of my head).

  • Need Help with Rotating Banner ad(please help)

    I am currently working on a flash project that rotates banners out auto and with button control, got the buttons to work just cant figure out how to get it  auto play throgh my bannersThis is the code i have for my project I am working on:
    My Projects has 3 layers:
    ( layer3)Actions:(coded on first frame)     Movieclip.prototype.elasticMove =  function(target, accel, convert) {
         step = step * accel + (target - this._x) * convert;
         this._x += step;
    (layer 2) My movie clip(it is one long strip that has all the banners in a row)(coded on first frame):nClipEvent  (enterFrame) {
                                         elasticMove(_root.newX, 0.5, 0.3)
    onClipEvent(load){
    _root.newX= 1200;
    (layer1)(my buttons)(only code for one button all are the same code except the actual position they call):on(release){
    _root.newX=1200;
    Let me know if i need to be a little more clear or you want a snap shot of my work, Another individual suggested that I use this code in the action layer:
    var newXA:Array=[0,600,1200,1800];
    var index:Number=1;
    setInterval(newXF,9000);
    function newXF(){
    _root.newX = newXA[index%newXA.length];
    It seems to work in the sense after a little bit it does change the banner auto and after you stayed on a banner for a while, but it always changes to the same banner.
    PLEASE HELP SOMEONE!!!!!!

    Incognito mode is a Google Chrome setting when you open a new window (Cmd+Shift+N on a Mac Ctrl+Shift+N on Windows) It opens a "private" window with no cookies and no tracking. The problem with it is that when you disable cookies, your license files are not sent to the site (whetehr it's YouTube or xFinity or any other that uses license files for paid content)  and it treats you as if you're a first time visitor. Paid videos won't play wihtout the cookies sending the license file info.
    This isn't a Flash Player setting. It's in Chrome. I did some research and according to Google, "Incignito" mode is off by default, and can ONLY be activate by the keyboard shortcut. There IS a way to disable it from the registry http://dev.chromium.org/administrators/policy-list-3#IncognitoModeAvailability

    There is nothing wrong with your Dell, it will work fine with any MacbookPro. I have been using Dell displays for over 12 years with many different Mac models. I have two 21" Ultra Sharp displays working side by side to design a Keynote presentation right now.
    The issue your having is with the way Keynote  takes control of the video output to both displays, it sends the presentation signal to one and the presenter display to the other, this is set up in;
    Keynote preferences > Presenter display.
    If you want to show a wesite or another app on  either display,  use application switcher:
    press the the  command key on the keyboard, then the tab key; a row of applications will show what applications are running, choose which one you want to show. Use command  > tab to return to Keynote.

  • Can't Left Click in Flash Player Settings Panel - HELP PLEASE

    Hi and thanks for taking the time to read this. Believe me it is a fraction of the time I have wasted trying to resolve this issue.
    Basic problem is:
    I am trying to stream to Ustream but since downloading AFP11 for my Windows PC when I open the Flash Player Settings panel i can't left click on anything. It is set to deny but I can't click allow, or close or any of the icons.
    Right click does work.
    I have followed countless instructions in other forums from other posts that have encountered the problem on Mac and older versions of AFP but as yet none of the solutions have proven succesul.
    I have tried all of the following but nothing has resolved the problem.
    1. Uninstall and reinstall Adobe Flash Player (although this is impossible using Google Chrome) and restart computer.
    2. Unistall flash and install older version. (made no difference on Google Chrome and on IE8 had no flash whatsoever).
    5. Uninstall older AFP and reinstall AFP11.
    4. Uninstall Google Chrome and restart computer.
    5. Uninstall QuickTime (I got this off http://www.techsupportforum.com/forums/f10/flash-player-not-working-properly-please-help-1 61552.html) and restart computer
    6. Last resort use keyboard shortcuts such as tab, enter and ctrl+arrows. This either didn't highlight the panel at all or if it did I still couln't select allow, or close the panel itself so was no help either.
    So now I'm back to square one.
    Now here's a really bizarre thing... I am using a shared laptop computer and if I use my colleagues profile where she hasn't updated her AFP to Adobe Flash Player 11 the settings panel is responding just fine. IT'S THE SAME PC!
    I know I am alone with this problem but someone out there has an answer. If you can help please let me know how to fix this problem where I can't left click in the Adobe Flash Player settings panel.and I will be eternily grateful.
    many thanks

    OK the amount I hate myself right now is more than a fat guy's self loathing for raiding the fridge at 2am for Pizza but less than an armed robber who's accidentally shot a pregnant woman in the stomach during a shootout. but not much less.
    So after I had miraculously got the Flash Player Setting Panel to work again, (after deleting QuickTime and leaving the window open for abut an hour it just started working again) I then got enticed into downloading the ustream producer software.
    While downloading it informed me that it would only work with QuickTime.
    Stupidly and Optimistically hoping it would remove the need to use flash player altogether I downloaded and installed both.
    I then discovered to my horror that Ustream producer is not a patch on Vidbalster and that it was not capable of delivering the same level of broadcast.
    I then opened the flash player settings panel on ustream and... the problem has returned!
    This means I am 99% sure that QuickTime IS the cause of the problem so I have uninstalled QT off the PC. I have also uninstalled Ustream Producer.
    The thing is though, now no matter how many times I restart, or uninstall and reinstall Adobe, or Google Chrome, I am once again UNABLE TO LEFT CLICK IN THE FLASH PLAYER SETTINGS PANEL. AAAARRRRRGGGGHHHH!!!!
    What did I do? I fixed it and  f***ing broke it again!
    Now it properly will not come back to life! the problem is not solved and i urgently need help.
    Why does Adobe Flash Player Settings Panel and Apple QuickTime hate each other so much that they've got to ruin my life?
    Help forum PLEASE!

    nik

  • Using the flash uninstaller/ problems/HELP PLEASE

    Look I'm very ill and I can only concentrate so long so
    please don't think I'm a jerk. Nothing has gone right as of late,
    i'm worried that if i do it wrong flash will not work at all and I
    won't be able to fix it. I only can go on the computer certain
    times because of headaches.I need to know three things. When using
    the flash uninstaller I'm thinkiing it uninstalls all flash
    products on your computer? I have two flashplayers that are named
    flash player helpers, do they get deleted? I have firefox and IE
    browsers, I need to make two downloads right because one is for
    firefox and one is for IE? Then Do you need to install the flash
    version NPSWF_32 for IE or just instasll the newest flah for IE?
    just need to know because I have computer issues and flash now
    doesn't work on certain sites. Why would flash stop on some sites
    on both browsers? They are two different flash,right. THANKS to
    anyone who answered this

    The Flash Player is available in two technologies..
    1. ActiveX control.. Used by all Windows versions of Internet
    Explorer ONLY
    2. A plugin. Used by all other browsers and all other OS
    Yes, you do need to install both if you use IE and other
    browsers.
    You should NOT have to worry about uninstalling, unless
    something goes wrong with the install, which does happen sometimes.
    But for millions of people a day the install goes just fine and
    they have no worries.
    I don't know what a 'Flash Player helper' is. YOu should NOT
    need to worry about the plugin and/or activeX control files
    themselves.
    Launch IE, go to
    http://www.adobe.com/go/getflashplayer
    and do the install, then quit IE.
    Then launch Firefox and repeat. That plugin install will be
    used by anything else on your machine that requires the plugin
    (except maybe for google chrome.. i haven't tested that)
    You should be OK with the basic update install. If you get
    stuck you can open a support webcase and we can guide you. Or in
    some cases (especially if troubleshooting can be a challenge) we
    recommend taking your machine to a local professional. But that's
    fairly rare.
